BETWEEN THE RUBB AND HIS SERVANT

The Hadith Qudsi:

[Reported by Muslim, Malik, at-Tirmidhi, Abu Dawud, an-Nasa’i and Ibn Majah]

I HAVE DIVIDED THE PRAYER BETWEEN MYSELF AND MY SERVANT.
[Surah al-Fatihah]

Abu Hurayrah radiallahu ‘anhu said: I have heard the Prophet sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam say:

“Allah (the Mighty and Sublime) has said: I have divided prayer between Myself and My servant into two halves, and My servant shall have what he has asked for.

When the servant says: “All praise belongs to Allah the Rabb of all the Worlds.”

Allah (Mighty and Sublime is He) says: “My servant has praised Me.”

And when he says: “The Most Gracious the Most Merciful.”

Allah (Mighty and Sublime is He) says: “My servant has extolled Me.”

And when he says: “Master of the Day of Judgement.”

Allah says: “My servant has glorified Me.” [and on one occasion He said: My servant has submitted to My power.]

And when he says: “You alone do we worship and from You alone do we seek help.”

He says: “This is between Me and My servant, and My servant shall have what he has asked for.”

And when he says: “Guide us to the Straight Path, the Path of those whom you have favoured, not of those upon whom is your anger, nor of those who are astray.”

He says: “This is for My servant, and My servant shall have what he has asked for.”

It is the delight of his heart, the pleasure of his eye and the joy of his soul that his Lord says about him: “My servant” three times. By Allah! If the fumes of desire and the darkness of the souls were not upon the hearts, they would have flown out of happiness and joy that their Lord, Maker and Deity says: “My servant has praised Me, My servant has extolled Me and My servant has glorified Me.”
